This breakdown made me realize how cooked we are lol.
No we are not, if you dont believe then you suck kid
Yup you guys are so soft, Mathew’s has zero grit he just wants to get the game over with so he can chill with Bieber
Idk man if McCabe doesn’t come out and cross check two guys in the face this game probably goes very different
Nah the leafs just have to take a page out of other dirty teams books and look to injure star players early in the series. Look at what happened to Knies during his first run, he was a rally point, and the Panthers? suplexed him taking him out for the series.
@@johndoe-fq7ez Dude is friends with Bieber?
Every time I see Matthews forecheck I'm like why doesn't Mr. 6'3" just body the D one frickin time.. and then they engage in the corner and he either picks the puck through a stick lift or through positioning or makes the play a 50/50 scramble. He's so effective at stick lifts/turnovers that it's ridiculous.
Matthews is big teddy bear not big pappi
Doesn’t want to break a nail or mess his hair! Then you have Marner who’s absolutely scared to death when the other team plays rough.
It works in the regular season but your going to need more than sticklifts if you want to win more than 2 rounds
He's a 1 way player
@@tedcity5861crazy comment
As a Leafs fan, it’s even becoming harder to hate Marchand. He knows how to get under their skin and they fall for it every time🤦🏼♂️
Just focus on the god damn game and not that giant nose, it’s pretty easy. They were barely skating, they were just taking a piss out there last night.
Leafs fan here. Is Marchand a rat? Yes. Would I take him over Tavares in a heartbeat? Yes.
Marchand is the player every team wants and it shows by all his peers wishing that he was on their team, because he is so valuable and knows how to win. His skill is top notch and his competitiveness is even higher, Something most of the Leafs core is sorely lacking.
Marchand needs to be suspended or something, I fucking hate him and he never plays fair, as goes for the rest of the Bruins
best breakdown of the game and future matchup i've seen both online and on tv. i'd watch these segments all day
IMHO Toronto needs a new coaching staff. All of it. The ideology of this team has got to change. You look at history and many teams/players written off as “soft” usually turn it around in their careers. I’m not a Toronto fan at all but I think the problem is Keefe and not the players, for once. They also never adapt in the playoffs to their opponents
they just have to trade a forward
Agree 100%. Any other coach with a guy like Reeves sitting at the end the bench would be sending the tough guy over the boards the next shift after a cheap shot to hit everything in sight and fight the first taker. Keefe hates tough players like Reeves and does not use him effectively. The point of signing a guy like Reeves is the enforce the rules that the refs miss. He is useless in the press box or stapled to the end of the bench. Boston don't have a guy in their lineup that would fight Reeves. use that to your advantage
I wish they’d just fire Keefe… in an important game like this one not putting Reaves out on a regular shift with Marner and Matthews and letting the Bruins know they are serious is just comical. Why did they even bother to sign him?
New coach and break up the core four. It doesn't work.
@@thecoffeeman65 kinda like when leafs signed simmonds for grit and he spent the season in the press box
Great analysis. Your channel is just amazing . Thanks for all your work
I know this wasn't the focus of the video, but not mentioning the Bertuzzi Cross-Check is kind of bad, because it seems like only one side was the offender the whole night.
"One team played physical, the other was creating unnecessary fights", instead of "Both teams were playing a similar chippy/playoff style hockey and the Bruins have a PHD on that area"
👊🏼🎸 Go Bruins !🏒
Bertuzzi is a dirtbag. Always was, always will be. It runs in the family.
It's pretty crazy how many teams try to out-muscle the Bruins when it's literally their MO to be sandpaper.
@@onewingedguyhahaha, you might be right if Boston didn’t get their shít pushed in by Florida last year, after that pathetic showing Boston lost all respect that they earned back when they were good 😂
right because spearing players to the groin and interference hits to the head is good hockey as long as any other team is doing it except the leafs. Get real
You're in March and you need make a pact? WTF!
😂
That's some like middle school girl shit wtf hahah
We need to figure out how to anger 34. Every time someone actually makes him angry , he scores a hatty in like 10 minutes
Please get angry Auston we need it.
Starts with defense
@@thegulch1780 definitely but the offence has been bigger problem in playoffs. 2 GPG isn’t good enough
@pattaccone5347 I know it sounds redundant but scoring actually starts with your defense - transitioning the puck up from the goalie control, the way goalies handle their rebounds and clear the puck - passing off their pads or blocker.
Elite goalies like Andre vasilevsky have assist statistics on goals. Not many goalies have a lot of points like hockey players do
- they rebound it so efficiently off their equipment to the defenceman and somebody scores at the other end off of your own goalies rebound or pass
This is a much quicker game than when I was an original 6 kid, got to get that puck up much faster now
They're not fore checking, organized nor fast enough to get behind defenses
And when you don't have a strong defense, it's more likely that your scorers are going to end up in the penalty box. Taking them off the ice from scoring position and on the penalty kill
Leafs need offensive defenseman that can shoot and score
But if you don't have a goalie you can trust, the team is always going to play back on their heels. They have to handle the goalies rebounds for them.
A good defense will keep the puck in your offensive zone supporting your forward lines
It's a domino effect. Scoring starts with your goalie and defense and works its way up all 200 ft of the ice
The game has definitely changed, and that starts with your defense getting the puck the he🏒🏒 out of there quickly!
I'm sorry they've bled their lines dry.
I read they've got 46% of salary cap in just a few players? It's a tough thing to look at. Not fair to players nor fans.
So perhaps leafs need to bring in some veteran rentals on defense to get through the next few seasons while they rebuild their defensive end with no money.
Or they're going to have to wait till there's a major cap increase for many teams to afford any one of those core players
I don't understand how Toronto let assistant coach Spencer carberry go back to Caps. He was responsible for the franchise record setting power play and Nylander's career high season.
🤷
However, Toronto does have some great news,
New York Rangers have been the top revenue team for over a decade - Toronto just passed them this year
Leafs are the number one revenue team in the NHL now!
😁
56 years with no cup?
😆
Somebody's thinking more about bucks than pucks

Lmfao shut the fuck up in the playoffs he doesn’t do fuck all in the playoffs!!!!
Austin is a pussy cat and always will be a soft player, You can't all of a sudden be an physically aggressive player, you either have it or you don't.
this Leafs team just reminds me of how much i miss guys like Gilmour, Clark, Gill, Potvin...etc
I may not like the Leafs but to be fair, that Gilmour core deserved a cup.
Sure, make me feel old why don't you! Lol
Tucker, Domi, Roberts, Belak

Nylander was Bruins' 1st star of the game.

Is that how he usually plays? He was absolutely brutal in both games but especially last night
@@johngoodman5094 He signed the big contract so he can focus on making cell phone commercials now.😂
No this is not how he usually plays , I’ll chalk it up to an off night. But I can say the same about Marner and Matthews. Kind of annoying such a big game and they all just no show
@@johngoodman5094he’s played way worse since signing his contract
That McAvoy is something else, I didn’t really see him make a bad play. Shut down everyone that came near him. Throwing hits, getting into a little scrap. I think I’d rather have him on my team over Makar, Hughes, or Fox
Yeah he was good,good and beat up.😆
McAvoy is an absolute horse and super consistent. Tons of skill too, but he just shuts top guys down night in and night out. Still underrated, and he logs the most mins gamd in and game out. Its something special
@@Handicripplewhat are you talking about?
@@thegulch1780 Gulch nice to see your dad named you after something that gives him pleasure. 😆
Although Matthew’s made the right play to beat my Sabres in OT the other day. You can’t deny the fact he is not physical at all😂
Seems criminal for a man of his stature.
He can be, he has turned on that physicality switch at times.
his tail is between his legs every time he faces boston
@@heliumtrophy seriously he’s 6’3 215 lbs and he can lay a hit and take a hit for sure, but if he was more physical he would be a force. Even though I hate the Leafs😂
@@brianbuckley9160 sadly in recent times so have the Sabres but young blood is on the roster
6:13 - looking to just 3 players to give your team some backbone won't cut it even in the regular season. Being tough to play against requires a full team effort - lines one through four, and Toronto has never shown that in recent history. I checked Toronto off as a non-factor after they allowed Marchand to challenge their bench after injuring Liljegrin back in early November, and then did absolutely nothing to counter it for the remainder of the game.
Marchand challenged the bench because they scored on the powerplay where they tried to take out his top row
Adding those 3 guys last summer was a copout. Let's add 3 rugged players, while keeping the soft Core intact, and hope that makes the team tougher and grittier.
Every player on the Bruins has that backbone. Same with the Canes and the Panthers and the Rangers. There are no passengers. On the Leafs, the best players, the ones that wear letters and are the highest-paid are always the passengers. These are supposedly the leaders on their team, and they show nothing. Yeah Matthews might score 70 and Nylander will get his precious 100 points. But this team is not remotely close to competing for a cup. And this is another reason why you don't give guys their bag before they've won anything. Because now, they have their money and they're comfortable. They don't have to worry about facing accountability.
@@pomerlain8924 those playoff teams you mentioned in the 2nd sentence didn't have a GM dumb enough to give the chequebook to 3 kids😂
@@pomerlain8924: Sorry to speak so much "ad hominem", but there is a connection. Well, i was born in late November of 1967, so, ergo, i was in the womb the last time the Leafs won Lord Stanley's Cup... Well, it is time to publically and confidently predict that i will be long dead and buried before they ever win it again. Neither sad nor happy such is the case (i have lived and studied in T.O., the self-proclaimed Centre of the Universe, and had a love / hate relationship with the city), but Toronto will NEVER ever have to worry about an NHL victory parade as long as i am alive. Take this declaration to the bank...^^
P.S.: Perhaps the problem is that the sports gods really hate willfully bad spelling.--? After all, the word "Leafs" is illegitimate ("Leaves" is correct). Similarly, the new-fangled Edmonton Elks (the plural of "Elk" is STILL "Elk") of the CFL suck . Though i positively loathed them, they were a much more formidable team as the Edmonton Eskimos. As the badly-named Elks, however, they set a North American record for most consecutive home-stadium losses in a professional sports league...
😂
@@ColinWrubleski-eq5sh Hey man, don't be so down on yourself... There will probably be thermonuclear war and everyone will be dead and equal too before the Leafs win a cup. That or AI enslaves us all in which case we will all only wish we were dead.

@@CYMotorsport never heard of Jxmmy high roller but I’ll def check it out
Doesn't matter how big or physical the other team is, the Leafs cave hard if you don't give them space to play with the puck. Nailed it with the Man-D vs Zone D comparison. This team is not built for playoff hockey, it's built to put on a show during the regular season.
Thats facts cause how far did the bruins make it in the playoffs?? the 1st round, thought so 😂😂
@isplash5148 Lets face it. The Bruins are better than Toronto buddy, period.
Can you do a breakdown on how the Lightning have been playing in current games, I would like to see it from the point of view of these videos
What's up with the Bruin's announcer? it sounds like he has trouble talking, 1 second behind the action and slow talker
I dunno how that guy has a job. He is so terrible to listen to. No excitement whatsoever. I'd rather listen to Ben stein calling the game. 😅
Totally, AWFUL to listen to
Recent article in the Boston Globe says Jack Edwards is in speech therapy trying to rehab it back. They've seen a ton of specialists and no one really knows how/why it happened.
@@HHSGDFootballJPD omg I feel awful! Something is wrong with him, like he has speech impediment or something? Holy crap I feel bad now. Lol
@@Gr8erdetfan It's weird and nobody knows why.
Sometimes he slurrs words, other times he botches names. Often times, he's a step slow. He understands he's getting older and slower as the game is getting faster.
Seems to be a little better the last couple weeks--it was so bad that I thought he was about to pop a brain vessel on live TV when Pastrnak scored an OT goal in November. But with the different hospitals in the area, nobody knows (as of yet) why this is happening.
Something that I think it’s important to point out that you missed is, I’m pretty sure Jake McCabe cross checked the rat because he poked him right in the balls with his stick earlier.
Ya by accident, still doesn’t mean you cross check someone in the face/neck area
@@ManualMike_TGS obviously he shouldn’t of done that, but he definitely didn’t cross check him for no reason.

Damn I did NOT expect to see my random IG comment to make the cut at the beginning of the vid 😂😂😂😂
I have been watching the 62, 63, and 64 Leafs playoff runs on youtube
These guys were unstoppable . They plowed through their opponents. The Habs especially had no answer, just getting out of their own zone
I look at these leaf players today
They will never match that "pit bull" tenacity . The old boys would die to win that cup
I"m afraid it's hopeless
I hope Toronto has their own we want Toronto moment
I HAVENT WATCHED THE LAST 11 games OF THE MAPLE LEAFS BUT WATCHED BOTH BOSTON GAMES!!! I SEEN ALL I NEEDED TO SEE WE ARENT DOING SHIT THIS YEAR!!!
the single biggest mistake TRELIVING made was---- Keeping Keefe. He had the chance.
I completely agree on what is said about Boston. They are solid on what they do. This team has been around long time and are a nightmare to face. Structure in offence and defence along with excellent goalies.. Great core and commitment team. Playoffs maybe another treat but I still like them even better than the last year. Just me maybe. But my bet is. If these two teams face POs... I bet on the one who has less changes on the late season. More tight knitted. I go for Boston even I am not a gambling man.
Funny how Edmonton is in the same boat in terms of being a top heavy team with having mcdavid and draisaitl, but ultimately is not a playoff team. People call them a cup contender and I wholeheartedly think as soon as they play Vancouver or Boston or Colorado they will fall like a loose brick on a building
No they wont white boy!
I saw the Jackets beat them last Thursday.
they beat Boston
Edmonton is not soft like Toronto. They are definitely top heavy though as it seems like players only score when they are with McDavid or Draisaitl. McDavid is definitely not playing soft this year as he has 97 hits compared to Matthews 71 hits while other superstars like MacKinnon and Kucherov lag behind with 49 hits and 37 hits...
If the NHL banned checking and defense the Leafs would be a dynasty.
As a Wings fan, back in the early 90s I remember them being practically the same as the Leafs are now: loaded with talent, soft as a marshmallow. Didn’t play a lick of defense and just outscored everyone. Then the playoffs rolled around and they crumbled like a stale cookie. They finally brought in a tough coach, decided they wanted to win more than collect points and eventually hoisted some Cups.
Matthews and Marner have the talent to dominate but just aren’t tough enough, physically and mentally. The Bruins are showing the Leafs how to win but for whatever reason the Leafs just refuse to learn.
Imbecile the Bruins got their heads pounded by the Leafs lightweights. They didn't need the big guys. 😆
Reads like they hoisted cups since the 90s, or do you mean 1890s?

Excellent analysis sir. I always thought the Canes were too soft.

Does anyone else notice that the Boston play-by-play guy talks in slow motion? I watched the oilers-bruins game on the Boston broadcast and the opening of this reminded me of it haha
he's noticeably slowed down in the past few years. He recently said that he's been seeing doctors about it and they have no idea what's causing it. It's very unfortunate honestly

As a hockey fan, I need this playoff series to happen
They made a pact in the locker room to stick together? That’s so bizarre… isn’t that already implied? You’re on the same team lmao
Keefe needs to watch this.

And as a leaf and it will actually work. The leafs are so cooked.
And why wouldn't they. They have the Leafs number. They know exactly how far they can go without getting a response. They can seriously injure Leafs players and they won't get more than a chirp. Even if they did they can be sure the biggest scorers will be absent in the playoffs against them.
Its a good thing, there's no cups for the regular season
Everyday without a HP video is hell. 🙏🏻
Wishing to play an opponent is what happened to Toronto and Boston last year and look where they ended up. You never know what will happen in the playoffs.
Boston has the goalie advantage, the D-advantage, the depth advantage, and the intangible advantage of wanting to avenge last season where it should have fallen
into their laps...
Toronto to Boston is like the Colorado Buffaloes college football rivalry vs the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the 1990's... a lot if talk, but nothing in the field...
or better yet, the Leafs are the Black Knight protecting the bridge against King Arthur in Monty Python + the Holy Grail...
Toronto has to get through the following to get the cup:
Bruins, Rangers, Hurricanes, Panthers
and if they survive that, they have to get past either Vancouver or Las Vegas or Colorado or Dallas or Edmonton or Winnipeg.... not to mention others that I may have forgotten.
They dumped their future into 4 players... Tavares is getting old, Marner can't carry a team on his back. Whoever the Leafs play, they just meed to slow down Nylander and Mathews.
The Leafs D can't match Boston, Florida, Carolina, Dallas or Las Vegas...
Samsanov will not be able to match up to the goalies for Florida, Boston, Dallas, Las Vegas, Winnipeg or Vancouver... perhaps about on par w Shesterkin (maybe not)...
Their depth is not even close to Edmonton...
The only way the Leafs have a chance to win the cup thus year is if they give their jerseys to one of the other contenders.
Stupid talk.

It would've been 5 on 3 regardless. McCabe should've been called for 2 different penalties. That would constitute a 5v3. There wasn't really a mistake. Not in the end, at least.
Best hockey channel no doubt 🔥🔥
Matthews can score 2 goals per game but.... that's not gonna help them when you're getting pushed around constantly
Because of the contracts and players, toronto is too dialed in to adapt - good example of changing completely to adapt to bruins is Panthers last year. Leafs don't have the (lack of ) talent - the talented players are paid to offense not play playoff hockey, I have even seen the Bruins adapt to other teams - Leafas do not seem to have that capacity.
I don't get why the Leafs won't just bring in a Stevie Y type that knows how to build a complete roster. I get SY's don't grow on trees but it seems like whoever is running the show in Toronto their philosophy still doesn't change.
Some dude was bragging about Matthews’ 4 penalty minutes and how that makes him an automatic MVP and Lady Byng winner… give your head a shake. It means he’s super soft, like a big ol’ meat burrito. If you ain’t drawing penalties, you’re not checking hard. Soft.
The games changed. He’s scoring goals and that’s what he’s there for. Guys like what you’re talking about are viewed as liabilities in todays game
Having been a fan of hockey all my life, I remember back in the day thinking that the Lady Byng trophy was almost an insult or a joke award.
But, I was also a fan of the heavier hitting more physical Era.
Those days are gone, the game has changed and is still a fun watch, but the game definitely has changed, and for some older fans like myself, not necessarily for the better.
Having some enforcers on your team used to help guarantee your marquee player wasn't going to get run. Nowadays, I just don't feel that fear of going after the other teams best guy...
I like the Roger Nelson's style of hockey. You need to play physical and hit your opponents hard!
McCabe didn't set the tone, it was in response to Marchand elbowing Knies illegally with no call. Marchand started the shit
